TO: The guy who dumped me because of my career
FROM: The woman hired to save yours
RE: I am 150,000% over you.
Alastair,
I’m on the 11:14 train out of London, so I’ll be there by 3:00. To make this as painless as possible, I thought it would help to establish key ground rules:
1. No rehashing our past relationship. Yes, we were engaged, but it’s been twelve years and I’m over you.
2. I’m very good at my job and that job is to help you shed the “reclusive” part of the whole “reclusive rock star” vibe you’ve got going on. Brace yourself.
3. My plan is to have this wrapped up by Friday, so save your smoldering looks until I’m gone, please. (I assume you still smolder?) I’m immune now. See item #1.
4. My cousin is getting married and guess who’s a bridesmaid? Funny, huh? Almost as funny as the fiancée you dumped because you thought she was married to her job now saving yours.
Always a bridesmaid, never a bride. Except almost. That one time.
Remi
P.S. Have I mentioned I’m totally, completely 150,000% over you?

My Thoughts <3
This was an enjoyable book to read! It is a story about finding yourself and a second chance to get it right this time, who freaking doesn’t love that!
Characters:
Alistair- super swoon worthy singer/songwriter that is a bit of a recluse, for good reason, but perhaps willing to get wider known. He used to date Remi back in college and they even got engaged before it all fell apart.
Remi- a successful PR agent that has dedicated her life to her work and has put everything else on hold- love, friends, and herself. She dated Alistair way back when but they broke up when it seemed as if her career was more important than their relationship.
Plot:
Oh second chance goodness! Remi’s firm is hired by Alistair’s agent to help increase his image and getting him more well known to be able to nab a huge spot in a festival. Remi has not seen Alistair in over 10 years and fears this is not going to go well, but she would do anything for her job.
It was a bit icy in the beginning but with finding Alistair again, she actually ended up finding herself even more so. There are a lot of twists in turns in this book which are pretty freaking interesting, but who doesn’t love a good finding yourself book, am I right?!
Steam:
This one was a little so-so for me. The reader can definitely see that there is chemistry between Alistair and Remi, but to me if felt more of a familiar kind of way. Let me be clear, there is NOTHING wrong with that, in fact, I believe it actually went along better with the story line. I would have liked a little bit more heat though.
All in All:
This was an enjoyable story to read and I do recommend it. I am giving this one a 4 outta 5 stars!
PS: I received an ARC of this book in return of my honest feedback!
